Is the Ring GT FIA approved?

Status seats are made for people that weigh less than 175lbs.

Brides and Recars FTW!

The GT is not, but the Ring is.

I weigh 200lbs and fit in the Imola and Ring GT :) Size 34 pants.

My Brides are soo uncomfortable! I considered selling quite a few times...

Are they really that expensive? The Vios Low Max and Zeta III are like $2000k for 2 seats including rails are they not?

It depends, you have different versions of each of those plus which type of rail you want.

Sounds about right for the fiberglass version of the Zeta III. The carbon fiber Zeta III is almost $1800 per seat, though.

Im somewhat interested now. I'm 5'8,30" waist, which one would be suitable for me if I'm looking into it?

Zeta III or Vios III? Will I regret not getting the ones that are reclinable?

TBH, I just like the look of the CF, I'll just wrap it in the future if I really want it.

Oh yea? Well, maybe you are one of the chosen then!

I'm 240ish 34 waist and have a hard time sitting comfortably in the Ring GT.

Recaro SRD, Recaro Pole Position are the most comfortable fixed buckets IMO. I ran them in a few of my cars and loved it. I have contemplated putting them in my Z. :tup:

The only fixed Bride I've been in is the Zeta III and it was super tiny for me. Then again, they aren't rated for people that weigh more than 200lbs anyway.

:ugh2:

you gotta remember, bride makes seats thinking its for japanese poeple, and ususally japanese people are pretty small... id say go for recaro x ASM collabo seats...

I have the Status Ring GT's, and love them. But I am 5'9 173lbs. 33" waist. I think they fit like a glove. But they are not true to their size, so take that into consideration.

I enjoy Cobra Seats……I mean if you are going to spend almost 2k on light weight bucket seat you can check out the Cobra Misano 30……

Shows a close up on the seat.......

I have recently been turned on to the Status seats. I think they are great looking and I love the personalization. Wish I could talk myself into spending that much on seats.
